A story and a wrap up…

I will be living out of suit cases and boxes for a while starting today. So I thought I would et a few posts together because I really don’t want my blog to go unattended for so long—control issues, I know!

Anyway—I will probably not have time or access to the ‘net until I get to my mom’s on Sunday. And I may not have the inclination to do anything on Monday so instead of doing what I should be doing right now I am going to write a few entries and postdate them.

Yesterday I mentioned how God was keeping an eye on the monsters for me. Well, we had one of the top scared-momma situations right after I posted that.

Bubba went for a walk with some of the neighborhood kids and some parents went along. I was listening for the kids to come back and heard the voices of the boys that Bubba had taken off with. But no Bubba voice…so I went outside and asked if Bubba had come back with them or if he had waited with the parents. They thought he was with them but I walked in their direction and again, no Bubba…

Bubba was lost.

It seems that he had taken off ahead of the parents with the rest of the boys but had gotten behind and turned the wrong way a couple of streets before ours. But he was easily found because when he realized that he did not know where he was he just stood and waited for us to come find him!

I was really proud of him because I knew that at least part of the time he is listening to me! I was also proud of myself because I did not totally panic and freak out!

When we found him he was very hot, very sad and a bit frightened but none the worse for wear. I swear this is just one more time that God was there keeping the little monster safe!

NOOOOOOO!!!! you can’t go dark… even if it is to move. oh, i’m so sad. i hope all goes well with the packers and the cross country drive with 2 dogs, 1 cat, 2 kids and a husband. i’m stressed just thinking about it.

and so glad bubba was found – safe and sound, but i’m sure momma was a bit shaky for a bit.

love you

My mom asked me what I was going to do about internet service while I was there. I told her I would see if I could use my aunts for a while!

Yes—long drive but we did it last summer only without the cats and a thousand pounds of extra stuff!

Actually—I was fine through the whole thing. I was surprised that I didn’t feel all that panicky!

I’m glad that he is okay. They do that to us sometimes, maybe to keep the parents grounded. Be careful driving home(VA). I’m sure this is hard on all of you. I admire you for being able to move from state to state. Keep your head up and know that we love you all.

Yep—ok and yes I am grounded. Hopefully the weather will be fairly cool for our drive so none of us suffer too much!

Woman, you are making this old lady’s heart go pound pound. I bet if that was your niece and her daughter that she would have had a heart attack. Maybe the only place they will get lost when they arrive here is out in the field. It is so pretty and green here so far this year. Tell the kids, I am ready to ride them around on the golf cart and we should have lots of time to do that this year. Love you are more than welcome to use my computer when you arrive. Also, the little one needs to get her laptop up and running and then you can sit out in the yard and play on the computer. I am sure your mom will call you later today to make sure HM gets home safely. Take care and God Be With All of You
